@justsayingwrong the house has ongoing investigations and even prior to this the house has stated they have not ruled out further articles of impeachment.. the articles of impeachment have not been transmitted to the senate… this is still 100% under Pelosi’s control.

@snoop alert Fortunately, snoop, we can all take great comfort from the fact that the responsibility for figuring out what crimes he committed, or even finding him guilty, does not rest upon your shoulders.

@desglacons..Thanks for confirming you agree with all the facts I provided in my original comment.
If you want to further confirm you agree with everything I said (and are incapable of effective discourse) just reply with more insults or ad hominem.

Let him testify, what are the republicans afraid of ? Here is another scary possibility, we all know how Bolton is a war hawk so what if he made a deal with Trump that if Trump attacks Iran (Soleimani) he will testify favorably for him. I guess we will have to wait and see how this all plays out.

*John Bolton* is a *Patriot* first and a *Republican* after that.
Maybe …….
Remember when he said that having Guiliani around was akin to having a live hand grenade in the room. *Mr Bolton* left the Trump Administration not because he Loved and Promised his Loyalty to the *Wannabe Dictator Trump* Which is why Trump got rid of James Comey. Another Patriot. I believe Bolton didn’t want to bash the Prez. Chump up early on but he knows he is needed to give the unknown testimony that is needed to get “The Donald” out of
“The Office”……………. and thus “Making America Great Again”
God Bless America.
PS. The US should take Trump and parachute him right in the middle of Tehran Square. 🤨 Let the kind Iranians deal with him. Prevent another War. 👍

@Jordan Goodman Yes he is my impeached president, but I hope he won’t win reelection. crying is something the Republicans do. I am constantly amazed at how they are still whining about Obama and Hillary. And geez Hillary did not even win. But they are still so butt hurt, that you can’t get through any political thread without their names being invoked..

@Jordan Goodman Impeached Traitor Trump Troll – YOU support the corruption, the emoluments violations, the sniveling submission to Putin, the mass 70,000++ abduction and terrorizing of children and babies, teargassing of unarmed families with children across an International border, allowing Russia, North Korea & China to gain tremendous strength, allowing China to money launder money to No. Korea thru 4 Chinese banks in New York, stealing of the 2016 Election, the attempted stealing of the 2020 Election, Helsinki, the Russian Foreign Minister standing over the president behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office as Donnie sat like a schoolboy in front of him, Russian money laundering, stock market manipulation & grotesque Corporate Tax Cuts, STEALING from his Charity for Kids & Vets, Removal from the Paris Climate agreement, trying to destroy NATO, many secret & 100% private Putin meetings, Brett “I like Beer” Kavascum, disrespected the disabled & gold star families, deporting families of soldiers, deported soldiers that were deployed and fought, given away code word level Intel, the gross immaturity, the hate, racism & white supremacy mongering, swamp culture of corrupt Cabinet, 5 time Draft Dodger, 6 time Bankruptcy king who spends other peoples money and does not pay back his debt, and a long list more!
– Impeached Traitor Trump’s Treasonous Corruption and Psychosis will be reviled throughout history for many, many centuries to come. Throughout time All will know that their sniveling “Chosen One” was nothing, but a 2 bit hustler who conned all the “christian racists and morons” and actively, willfully and with malice of forethought tried to destroy the United States of America.

@Jordan Goodman MAGA = Fascism, and I know you don’t have any idea what that word means, so this will help you: WIKI: Fascism is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultra-nationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, and strong regimentation of society and of the economy which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe. The first fascist movements emerged in Italy during World War I, before spreading to other European countries. Opposed to liberalism, marxism, and anarchism – fascism is placed on the far-right within the traditional left–right spectrum.

Webster’s: Fascism is a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.

@Robert Franz She is not propping up the Traitor Trump, try not to get swayed by the Ru-publicans propaganda.They decided to go ahead with Impeachment rather than waiting while the traitors dragged out the court battles endlessly, so that they can hopefully take the Senate & the Presidency in November. It was a very smart move.

Thomas Jackson I respectfully disagree. Books written by American Leaders are read All over the world. Believe me. If the entire Trump base buys his book, it won’t make a dent compared to every single person all over the world who choose not to buy it.
